No, his two years haven't been too long but just enough for us to see that he probably isn't up to it.

I wouldn't be upset if he stayed, but he's regressed since last year I feel.

Fair enough, although I think you're being too critical on this occasion.

After the Casey match we can say goodbye to Spencer(5th),Michie(zilch),Trengove(4th),Grimes(5th),M.Jones(zilch),Newton(zilch),Terlich(zilch),Dunn(4th) and Garland (4th). In brackets is the draft pick we could command ( more like pray for) ANB and Kennedy Harris may survive,we need someone to get rid of for next year.

I think you should change your name to TSIMISSEP


Mitchie (R) - gone. 

King (R) - gone. 

White (R) - gone. 

Grimes - gone. 

Terlic - gone. 

Newton - gone. 

Dunn - trade. 

Garland - trade. 

Spencer - no choice but to keep.

ANB - keep.

Trengove - just signed so looks like he's staying.

JKH - keep. 

Obviously Oliver, Weid and Hulett will be on the Dee's list next year.

Wagner will be upgraded.

Going to be challenging to bring too many kids in this year with no first round pick and Hibberd moving to the Dee's

Think Dawes and Pederson might depend on what may go down with Jesse. 

The club sent Pedersen for surgery not so long ago, so I get the feeling they are invested in him as a good depth player. 

 

Now Casey are done, do we expect season exit interviews today or tomorrow, and potential list announcements thereafter?

They'll surely let the players have a mad Monday first before doing any of that so I would guess end of the week.

All my Monday's are mad. Not sure what the fuss is about

I suspect in a lot of cases the decisions have been made and the players possibly already know, or have a strong indication of which way it'll go.

Yeah you'd think most players would either know through the year so they can gauge interest elsewhere or they've been around long enough to read the signs. Just don't think anything official will be done until they've had a chance to decompress. Would have noticed how badly Brisbane (was it them, can't recall exactly?) did it by letting players now on the Monday after their season ended.

Wednesday is usually the time when exit meetings are done for majority of the clubs including the MFC. Expect announcement either Wednesday or Thursday depends when they want to officially release it to the media.

Just a gut feeling from yours truly.

Didn't have a lot of competition for his role before he went down concussion.

Now he has, Hunt, Wagner, Vince (sort of), Melksham and Hibberd.

HL has a decent contract. Can't see him going anywhere unless of course he decides to give it away.

Hope you're right but so far he has done nothing to show that he'll bounce back to cement a spot next season.

To be fair he's not had much in the way of opportunity

  • REPORT: Essendon

    What were they thinking? I mean by “they” the coaching panel and team selectors who chose the team to play against an opponent who, like Melbourne, had made a poor start to the season and who they appeared perfectly capable of beating in what was possibly the last chance to turn the season around.It’s no secret that the Demons’ forward line is totally dysfunctional, having opened the season barely able to average sixty points per game which means there has been no semblance of any system from the team going forward into attack. Nevertheless, on Saturday night at the Adelaide Oval in one of the Gather Round showcase games, Melbourne, with Max Gawn dominating the hit outs against a depleted Essendon ruck resulting from Nick Bryan’s early exit, finished just ahead in clearances won and found itself inside the 50 metre arc 51 times to 43. The end result was a final score that had the Bombers winning 15.6 (96) to 8.9 (57). On balance, one could expect this to result in a two or three goal win, but in this case, it translated into a six and a half goal defeat because they only managed to convert eight times or 11.68% of their entries. The Bombers more than doubled that. On Thursday night at the same ground, the losing team Adelaide managed to score 100 points from almost the same number of times inside 50.

  • POSTGAME: Essendon

    Despite a spirited third quarter surge, the Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, remaining winless and second last on the ladder after a 39-point defeat to Essendon at Adelaide Oval in Gather Round.

  • GAMEDAY: Essendon

    It’s Game Day, and the Demons are staring down the barrel of an 0-5 start for the first time since 2012 as they take on Essendon at Adelaide Oval for Gather Round. In that forgettable season, Melbourne finally broke their drought by toppling the Bombers. Can lightning strike twice? Will the Dees turn their nightmare start around and breathe life back into 2025?
